COMMENT
Winemaker Dwight Bornwell says, "Our wine is a Pure Bred Wine." Their philosophy is to "make the best wine from a single variety of grape." They do not blend any of their products. Just like "Pure Bred" horses and cows, they make wine that makes the most of the pure flavor of each variety. This idea is also reflected in the animals depicted on the bottles.
WINEMAKING
Zinfandel from vines aged 50 to 90 years. Fermented in stainless steel tanks (14 days) and aged in American oak for 12 months.
